Angle

  • An angle is a combination of two rays (half-lines) with a common endpoint. The latter is known as the vertex of the angle and the rays as the sides, sometimes as the legs and sometimes the arms of the angle

Side- Side-Side Rule

Side-Side-Side is a rule used to prove whether a given set of triangles are congruent.


The SSS rule states that: If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
